Tab Content script: Start with a specific tab

[guvenck]

1) Script Title:
Tab Content Script

2) Script URL (on DD):
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/tabcontent.htm

3) Describe problem:

Hi, I would like to thank DD for this nice script. I am using it with no problems.

I wonder if I can link to a specific tab from another page. In other words, can I make the tab content div start with a specific tab?

For example I keep the Book Info on the first tab and the comments for this book on the 4th tab.

Can I make a link from another page (for ex. Search Results Page) like "Click to read the comments on this book" and load the page with 4th tab selected?

Yep, just add the "selected" class to the <li> element:

<li class="selected"><a href="#default" rel="ajaxcontentarea">Intro</a></li>

How does that, do this:

That still wouldn't load a tab from a link on another page with that script. The two scripts are similar and the thread that I linked to in my post:

covers how to do this for both of them.

I posted my humble PHP solution to the original thread. Thanks a lot.
